The Belly Beautiful has been the Sacramento Valley's premier source for prenatal, labor, postpartum and corrective bodywork for women since 1998. I'm also a DONA trained Birth and Postpartum Doula with over 20 years of experience supporting high-risk, high-intervention births. Choosing the right therapist to support you during your pregnancy is an important decision. I've spent nearly two decades
working with Sutter Memorial Hospital and the area's best OBGYN's and perinatologists. I'm not only a therapist but an educator, having run a massage institute for several years where I not only taught but also developed curriculum, all while building my private prenatal practice. Coincidentally, I was inspired to pursue my various levels of perinatal massage certification during my first pregnancy when I discovered that there literally was not a single therapist in all of Sacramento who had proper training. My second pregnancy was high risk. And so began the pursuit...
Most of my clients have been with me from their first pregnancy to their third (and sometimes fourth...) and everything in between: kids with sports injuries, hubbies with old sports injuries, and moms working hard to maintain their bodies to keep up with their growing families. It's been a gift to serve so many families over the years. I'm looking forward to the opportunity to serve you, too!
